Sunan Ibn Majah 2537 (Book 20, Hadith 5) #31891
The Superiority of Legal Punishments

SUMMARY: Carrying out the legal punishments prescribed by Allah is better than forty days of rain.

It was narrated from Ibn 'Umar that the Messenger of Allah said: "Carrying out one of the legal punishments prescribed by Allah (SWT) is better than if it were to rain for forty nights in the land of Allah (SWT), Glorified is He".
حَدَّثَنَا هِشَامُ بْنُ عَمَّارٍ، حَدَّثَنَا الْوَلِيدُ بْنُ مُسْلِمٍ، حَدَّثَنَا سَعِيدُ بْنُ سِنَانٍ، عَنْ أَبِي الزَّاهِرِيَّةِ، عَنْ أَبِي شَجَرَةَ، كَثِيرِ بْنِ مُرَّةَ عَنِ ابِنْ عُمَرَ، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ قَالَ ‏ "‏ إِقَامَةُ حَدٍّ مِنْ حُدُودِ اللَّهِ خَيْرٌ مِنْ مَطَرِ أَرْبَعِينَ لَيْلَةً فِي بِلاَدِ اللَّهِ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ

This hadith speaks to the importance of carrying out the legal punishments prescribed by Allah. These punishments are known as hudud, and they are meant to maintain justice and order in society. The hadith states that carrying out these hudud is better than if it were to rain for forty nights in the land of Allah, which implies that it is a great act of worship and obedience to God. It also shows us how important it is for us to follow His commands and laws, even if we don't understand why they have been prescribed or what their purpose may be. We must trust in God's wisdom and accept His will without question.

The hadith also serves as a reminder that we should not take lightly any punishment given by God, no matter how small or insignificant it may seem at first glance. We must remember that all actions have consequences, both good and bad, so we should strive to do our best in following His commands so as not to incur any negative repercussions from Him.
